panthattam song

A few years ago I saw a performance with a panthattam item, the song was something like "panthai ..... sundari, panthai ... ." (the dots are the same missing word). Can anyone ID the song, and perhaps suggest a good recording? It's a earworm that won't go away until I hear the whole thing again. Thanks!

Search the mOhiniATTam archives...IIRC, pandATTam is a part of the mOhiniATTam mArgam

I know we have panthaattam in kuravanji if I'm not mistaken kind of a folk song though it has a nadai.I have heard Nithyashree sing it in some kutcheri. I'm unable to recall though.

I think the song lines are, "pandaliTTalaDi sundari, pandaliTTalaDi" in tilang, set to music by sundarEShvara Sharma.

I can recollect the lyrics as much as provided below. Please feel free to correct.

rAgam: tilang tALa: tiShram

p. pandaliTTalaDi sundari, pandaliTTalaDi

a. vasanta sundari vindhya peNNE
